Question

Aiden put two-fifths of his Money into his piggy bank. He had $15 left in his pocket to buy a toy. How much money did aiden have before he put some into his bank?

Answer 1

$37.50

Explanation:

`(2)/(5)` of Aiden's money is $15. Half of
`(2)/(5)` is
`(1)/(5)`, so you have to find half of $15 to find out what
`(1)/(5)` of Aiden's money is.

15/2 = 7.5.
`(1)/(5)` of Aiden's money is $7.50.

7.5 × 5 = 37.5, so Aiden had $37.50 before he put some into his piggy bank.

Answer 2

Answer:25

15x 2/5=25
